Drilling Activity Summary

Description

A six-well drilling program is under way by Beach Energy Ltd. in the PEL92 permit in the western flank of the Cooper/Eromanga Basin in South Australia. According to Beach partner, Cooper Energy, the program consists of four exploration/appraisal wells and two development wells. The first well is #1-Rincon North, an appraisal of discovery #1-Rincon. Two exploration wells, #1-Sharples and #1-Wyomi are planned to test the north-south trend of producing fields, and a fourth exploration well will be drilled after assessing results from the previous wells. The two development wells, #7-Callawonga and #8-Callawonga, are intended to accelerate Namur sandstone production. Adelaide-based Beach is the operator of PEL92 with 75% interest in partnership with Cooper, holding the remaining 25%.
